SOUNDING BOARD is an outlet for opinions on good and crazy things going on at home (wherever I may be). All are welcome. You are not expected to bring anything except your common sense & sense of humor.

Game over
Despite the unexpected stumbling blocks that the coalition forces had to go through, the Iraqi forces were expected to give in sooner or later. And they did. Or at least that's what the coalition forces hope they are seeing right now. If, indeed, the war is over, then we are moving to a more difficult phase --- post-war reconstruction. This may be UN's last chance to get a grip on the situation. We do not want to suspect any American agenda on Iraq reconstruction, do we?
I did not see any WMD and I certainly do not want one to be released at this point. But I wonder if this basis for pursuing preemptive strike against Iraq is now being diluted amidst all the other issues. I just wonder.
